Native Countries: Wallace's Hawk-Eagle is native to Brunei Darussalam, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar and Thailand.
Appearance: 46 cm. Small, boldly-patterned hawk-eagle. Rufescent sides of head with blackish streaks, dark crest broadly tipped white, three dark bands on tail. Buffish-white base-colour to underside flight feathers and warm buffish coverts with narrow dark barring.
Habitat: They are resident in evergreen forests, chiefly in the lowlands and on lower hill-slopes, but has occasionally been reported up to 1,000 m.
Threats: The key threats are habitat loss, degradation and fragmentation as a result of large-scale commercial logging, including within protected areas, and widespread forest clearance for plantation agriculture (primarily rubber and oil-palms). Wallace's Hawk-Eagle lives in the rainforests, unfortunately the rainforests in their native countries are being cut down every minute for industrial purposes and so the Wallace's Hawk-Eagles are losing their homes, this is what has made them vulnerable in the wild. Their numbers are decreasing rapidly.
A list Of Threats: Agriculture and aquaculture, annual and perennial non timber crops, small-holder farming, agro-industry farming, biological resource use, hunting and traping terrestrial animals, persecution/control, logging and wood harvesting, unnintentional effects (subsistence/small scale), Unintentional effects (large scale), natural system modifications, fire and fire suppression, increase in fire frequency, climate change and severe weather, droughts. So What Are We Doing About It?: Land and water protection, resource and habitat protection, land and water management, site and area management, law and policy, legislation, national level.
